I really enjoyed Sleeping in..... I don't think I have ever gone to a Memorial Day Parade... I think for some reason they don't have them in Buffalo really I think that is why.....

I did watch a pretty interesting Documentary on showtime called "Hugh Hefner:Playboy, Activist, and Rebel"... Was there some nudity um think so but it wasn't about that at all really... If one is to pickup a playboy magazine one would find well after they got off to the girls that it is really about the articles.... The really famous ground breaking stuff and Famous writers and all that kind of stuff happened before I was born but still some good stuff....

So later I guess going out for a dog or burger.... Now I'm going to see what Videos of music I can find on Youtube that relate to the movie......

So Yesterday's Plans went up in smoke and not event the good way HA.....

Watched the Hangover II and wish I could say what parts where my favorite but it would give way to much away.... If you have seen the previews then yes the Face Tattoo is still funny for some reason.... The Plan was to go up to Roxy's to go see some Burlesque.... Mistress J of the Stripteasers teaches a class and then her students perform ..... It would have been great just drink and watch and have the ladies out yell me but it didn't happen argh fuck.....

I decided I would find a movie and go out get money go up there and have a good time.... I watched and had a good time with Salt....Good action Movie.. So I get up to gel the hair and my body is like dude you are tired you ain't going so fuck it... I should have gone but I was so not feeling it... Hope the ladies and some guys who went had a great time and hope all the performers did great....

So on Stars watched an odd movie called "The Virginity Hit" now it looked like all the videos where legit home video but hard to know if that was really the case.... That was an interesting movie .......

I admit I never liked the MacGruber Bit on SNL but the movie was better then the sketches so....Yes there was some funny stuff. It was like a parody of action movies like Rambo and others not a shot just at Rambo though.... It was nice....

Then some how I stayed up for Yes I got a 2nd wind and watched the Zack guy from the Hangover SNL that I passed out on when it aired live it was good.....

Oh so lame wanted to be looking at ladies and drinking oh well oh yeah lame............Still enjoyed myself....Not going to let this happen next weekend though.......

Woke up early today since I passed out early last night... This means I got to Watch Diary of The Dead.... It was a fun Zombie movie to watch.... I like that it also speaks on media a bit and how it effects us and that it was made to look like all amateur shotting well not hollywood cameras .....

Now I can't say much about the Hangover with out giving stuff away... It was funny but not as much as the 1st one but then again I also thought the 1st one was better the 2nd time... The movie was crazy again won't give anything away other then to say now I want to Go to Thailand .... I think a few of the things that where supposed to be jokes I just liked but hey that is just me.........

Wish I had time to get in a 3rd movie but I doubt that happening.... Think I'm going to see Burlesque (not to be confused with the movie that I think was really good) At Roxy's (Mistress J has a class and they are dancing so......No Pictures also so that is good also...)

I think part of that kind of Comedy Movie is that a full theater helps.... When I went the place was empty...... I also don't think it helped that the Pop corn guy said it was so funny I would be crying ...... I also think that (not counting people who " Smoke Up" before they go) that comedy works best in a certain mood but you can't really tell when that mood is.... I saw go with some friends and have a good time.... Again I can't say what my favorite parts where cause it would give way to much away......

I was hoping the hangover would be good.The first one was so hillarious and I live Kristen Whig. Should I just wait for it to come to Netflix?

So Some how It is Memorial Day Weekend.... How did that Happen.... I just feel like getting away... Wish I was the kind that could just go hop on a bus or train and go to NYC but 8 hours isn't one of those fuck it I'm outta here things.... Even Toronto would be great but currently the USA Gestapo makes you prove who you are to get back into this country but yet all the illegals just kinda walk in.....ARGH.... Oh well Guessing I'll go down and look at the ships or maybe watch a bunch of war movies who knows.... Then the Next weekend is Pride.... I figure go to the Parade (think it goes the other way this year and then down to the Marina)... Might Check out the Dyke march and then later go drink and take pictures of the Stripteasers event think Club Diablo is having some cool event that night to.....

Ok now the TV question... I bought an HD LED TV..... I don't have the HD Channels yet but stations that have shows in HD don't take up the entire screen it has this thing called zoom but then it looks like the other settings either the picture is small or you lose a tiny bit of it......Does this mean to see the HD shows to take up the entire screen I need the HD Channels?

Next Question.... Some shows look different color wise if I lean back or forward.... Kinda like how some phones do this...Any Idea why (lights are on)......

Just thought if someone had one of these kinds of TVs they might have some insight....Mine is small 22 inches if that helps and is on a little stand.....

@MrMike that is a help I assumed that the entire screen would be filled.

@tinypliny that 4am train sounds like a cool idea I may have to try that some time... Well In terms of hooking it to the computer I bought for my mothers house I have no idea how to do that.... Besides if I did that I would never leave .... It is 22 inch

It may just be me but the TV doesn't look like it is completely flat the screen looks like there is a tiny turn to a very almost not there curve...

A nifty trick is to take the 4:00 AM train to NYC and just sleep all the way till it gets there at around 12:30. It's the best way of avoiding the eternity of a train ride. You can't do that in a bus ride, that's why I have decided to always take the train or fly and NEVER commute by bus to NYC again. How big is your TV? Can you connect it to your computer?

Those sets have settings (check your remote) that decide the size and shape of the picture, won't always fill the complete screen

I have actually seen people washing clothes at that "ice-rink-by-winter". Though I wonder if they had to add an entire gallon of detergent to reach that level of foam! What a waste!

From a distance it did look like snow so I went to go see it.... I wonder if someone added something so they could wash their clothes.... there where some clothes on a bench.... Or maybe there is something they put in the water to make it clean and there was to much not really sure but it sure was interesting............

I was so confused until I read the last part. I though that the foam was snow, lol. I wonder if that was okay for the fountain or if someone did it as a prank.

So went to see the newest installment of the Pirate movies in 3D today... It was a fun time... In Terms of 3D stuff there where two parts that I noticed that where pretty good but again not sure about the 3D thing... I suspect for a movie to really work in 3D the entire thing has to be shot in 3D and only 3D... See if a movie is going to be in 2D and 3D then the 3D parts don't make sense in the 2D version and the 2D stuff could be 3D? That is why I'm pumped for one of the previews I saw 3 Musketeers... The last version of it that came was pretty good but this 3D version looks like it will be amazing.... Oh yeah Pirates was good and if you liked the other ones you will like this one....I admit I don't remember the past stories cause for some reason I have only seen them at the show...... That being said as soon as the credits started to roll I was thinking wonder when the next one is going to come out.... Then end credits and the next movie starts or where I assume the next one will pick up AWESOME!

Hopefully tonight if the world hasn't ended by then I will finally get to watch Get Him To The Greek.... It is on HBO and what ever previous station it was On I kept missing it......

This Morning was kinda odd as it looked like there was fog but it was high in the sky and kinda distant......

I always like all the versions of the 3 musketeers! I need to catch this later. Did you ever watch that youtube video by a fake band called "the lonely planet" featuring Michael Bolton, where he keeps singing about the pirates of the caribbean while the others are singing about something completely different. It's a riot. Watch it on youtube when you get a chance. I think the band started out as a farcical group on SNL or something.

I will admit I love Lovely tattoos on women.... I Don't know about the sleeve thing though I prefer when you can see what each Tattoo is with some space around it.... Yes over on that other site I like tattoo pages and like tattoo shows.... Well there was a question about if you got a $1000 tattoo and had to spend all of it what would you get? I have no idea what anything costs....

-I don't think I could deal with the type of pain that tattoos give
-what if I don't like it, I mean how it look on me I'm more of a wall art guy

That being said I have 3 ideas for what I think could be pretty cool of course the pain of any of them might kill me and I don't know if they could be done artistically

1. San Fransisco Metallica Tattoo.... It would be include all the members yes even Mustane who went onto megadeth fame... Somehow the golden gate bridge and those famous Trolly's would have to be a part of it....

2. I tropical lagoon with a huge waterfall rising out of the water would be a water dragon and laying on the grass would be a white tiger.......

3. A mash up of Sean Madden art... Maybe the warpigs with a tank and one of them has the Bottle and gun with girls kissing as the pope looks on dancing with the devil or something like that

4. On top of a flat part of a mountain a huge dragon Sits with a Knight and is crying as they both look down on a grave yard... The crosses are swords with shields on them

Again just Ideas to get the detail on my skinny self to make any of them good I would need my entire chest or back......

Wish I was good at the Movie Review thing .... But here goes it seemed there was a lot of story but that is a good thing cause lets face it a lot of people don't know the story and didn't read the comic or The Avengers... The way I think of it is that I think all "The Avengers" will get there own movie.... This is like the back story so you need to go see all of them to get the story... Yes this one at almost the same time as the Movie Company name set up the Avengers movie kinda like how Thor was set up at the end of credits of can't remember what movie Ha... Oh well. I thought the effects where pretty good... Again I can't compare them to the other movie so can't say how 3D it really was or not... I enjoyed it and before the movie two previews for two great looking movies the green lantern and Captain America both look like they should be amazing.......

So I admit it is pretty nice out... It would be great to be people watching (the girls with the low cut tops and those tiny shorts that make those long legs make them look tall) and not only that but to be outside... It makes me wish I had a top porch nice view of something doesn't have to be people and a laptop with one of those costly plans with the internet card.......

Maybe it was about a month ago when it was really this nice and it tricked everyone and everyone was out on the corners and porches and "The Strip". The last time I was coming home down elmwood with stuff other wise I would have stopped someplace and this brings me to my point....

As I went past Mezza I thought I saw Hookahs out front... At first no big deal some one was smoking from it but that gave me some thoughts.
1. Do you buy the stuff there or does it come with the meal or can you smoke with out a meal.....
2. Are you allowed to bring your own?
3. Is the hookah out there or do you have to request one...
Yes I get that what one uses is Flavored tobacco.. But what I'm wondering is if you replace that with weed or maybe something else would work or mix it in... If anything happened what would happen legally.... Do they have to have some things set up so you don't do any thing illegal... If say you did and say got into an accident couldn't they be sued since they provided the instrument for you getting high?

Again just kinda some thoughts I don't even know if they sell food I like.........

Wasn't sure just something I was pondering.... I don't have enough money for Richmond so Elmwood is way out of the question.... Not to mention the costly internet cards....... but it is a nice idea though

I think it would be all the smokers fault. As for sitting over elmwoodstrip on a laptop: that was my favorite part about living right on elmwood by Lafayette. Its awesome in the summer.

I have heard of Surf Music and I think you hit the nail on the head... Hoping to put some more time in to find more of this......

Neat!

I think these actually qualify for the subgenre "surf music" but I'm not sure how to put the difference into words. They originated around the same time and have common elements. Here's what wikipedia says:
Surf music began in the early 1960s as instrumental dance music, almost always in straight 4/4 (or common) time, with a medium to fast tempo. The sound was dominated by electric guitars which were particularly characterized by the extensive use of the "wet" spring reverb that was incorporated into Fender amplifiers from 1961, which is thought to emulate the sound of the waves.[6] Guitarists also made use of the vibrato arm on their guitar to bend the pitch of notes downward, electronic tremolo effects and rapid (alternating) tremolo picking.[9] Guitar models favoured included those made by Fender (particularly the Mustang, Jazzmaster, Jaguar and Stratocaster guitars), Mosrite, Teisco, or Danelectro, usually with single coil pickups (which had high treble in contrast to double coil humbucker pickups).[10] Surf music was one of the first genres to universally adopt the electric bass, particularly the Fender Precision Bass. Classic surf drum kits tended to be Rogers, Ludwig, Gretsch or Slingerland. Some popular songs also incorporated a tenor or baritone saxophone, as on "Surf Rider" and "Comanche".[11] Often an electric organ or an electric piano featured as backing harmony.
